With the deepening of the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),the analysis of mineralogical features of mineralogical TCM,as an important part of TCM,has received more and more attention.At present,the research of mineral-based traditional Chinese medicine is faced with problems such as confusion of medicinal resources,unclear material basis,and low exclusivity of quality standards,while common analytical techniques have certain limitations in quantitative analysis,sensitivity and comprehensive characterization,which restrict the modernization research of mineral-based medicines and its clinical applications.The advanced mineral identification and characterization system integrates energy spectrum and spectral analysis techniques,combined with efficient data processing algorithms,which can rapidly and accurately analyze mineral components qualitatively and quantitatively,but its application in mineral medicine research is still in its infancy.This article reviews the common analytical techniques for mineral medicine and the potential application of advanced mineral identification and characterization system in the identification of mineral Chinese medicine matrix and quality control.The advanced mineral identification and characterization system can not only accurately distinguish the mineralogical characteristics of mineral medicines,such as the mineral composition,elemental state and embedded characteristics,and provide data support for the research of mineral medicine resources,but also provide scientific basis for the establishment of systematic quality standards,the analysis of the preparation mechanism,the revelation of its potential medicinal effect of the material basis and the control of the risk of heavy metals.

Objective: To explore the prognostic value of human mitochondrial transcription termination factor 3 (hMTERF3) and forkhead box protein 3 (Foxp3) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: The clinical data of 88 patients with NSCLC who were admitted to the Third Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from March 2017 to March 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were diagnosed by pathological puncture. The patients were followed-up by telephone for 12 months, and according to the prognosis, the patients were divided into good prognosis group and poor prognosis group. The pathological tissues were taken from all patients, and the expressions of hMTERF3 and Foxp3 proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry. The expressions of hMTERF3 and Foxp3 in the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group were compared. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis in patients with NSCLC. Results: Of 88 patients, 61 patients (69.3%) had good prognosis and 27 patients (30.7%) had poor prognosis. The positive expression rate of hMTERF3 in the good prognosis group was 57.4% (35/61), which was significantly lower than that in the poor prognosis group (81.5%, 22/27) (χ ²= 4.766, P= 0.029). The positive expression rate of Foxp3 in the good prognosis group was 55.7% (34/61), which was significantly lower than that in the poor prognosis group (85.2%, 23/27) (χ ²= 7.113, P= 0.008). The proportions of patients with medium and high differentiation or stage Ⅰ- Ⅱ in the good prognosis group were 82.0% (50/61) and 68.8% (42/61), respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the poor prognosis group [48.15% (13/27) and 25.93% (7/27)] (both P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the poor differentiation, stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, hMTERF3-positive and Foxp3-positive were the risk factors for poor prognosis in NSCLC patients (all P < 0.05). Conclusions The positive expression rates of hMTERF3 and Foxp3 in patients with good prognosis are lower. The hMTERF3-positive and Foxp3-positive are risk factors for poor prognosis in NSCLC patients.

Objective To evaluate the dose response and prognosis of patients with stage ⅠE primary ocular adnexal mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (POAml) treated with radiotherapy.Methods Clinical date of 93 patients (117 eyes) with stage ⅠE POAml treated from November 2003 to July 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.The dose response was evaluated by observing the ocular changes in exophthalmos.The survival rate was calculated by using the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.The log-rank test and univariate analysis were used for prognostic analysis.Results For patients treated with a dose of ≥ 27 Gy,the response rate of exophthalmos was 69.0％(29/42).The median response dose was 7.2 Gy (5.4-19.8 Gy).For all patients,the local control rate was 100％.The 5-and 10-year overall survival (OS) rates were 92％ and 82％.The 5-and 10-year cause-specific survival (CSS) rates were equally 98％.The 5-and 10-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate were 90％ and 88％.The univariate prognostic analysis demonstrated that the International Prognostic Index (IPI) score and age were the prognostic factors of PFS rate (both P=0.04).Conclusions POAml is sensitive to radiation therapy.Radiotherapy alone can yield excellent local control and long-term survival in POAml patients.A prescription dosage of 18 Gy dose can obtain favorable clinical efficacy.

We analyzed retrospectively the result of postoperative RT by electron beam in 314 patients with breast cancer after a radical or modified mastectomy between 1976～1992. The radiation portals covered the supraclavicular, the axillary and the internal mammary lymph node chains and chest wall. D T40～50Gy/4～5w was delivered. The local regional failure and factors affecting the survival rates, such as the clinical stage, the status of axillary lymph nodes and radiation dose were analyzed. The symptomatic radiation pneumonitis (9.4%) was discussed.
